Factors influencing cancer genetic somatic mutation test ordering by cancer physician

open access: yesJournal of Translational Medicine, 2020
Background Clinical whole exome sequencing was introduced in an Australian centre in 2017, as an alternative to Sanger sequencing. We aimed to identify predictors of cancer physicians’ somatic mutation test ordering behaviour.

Unified classification and risk-stratification in Acute Myeloid Leukemia

open access: yesNature Communications, 2022
Classification and risk-stratification for Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) at diagnosis are primarily based on cytogenetics and only a few gene mutations. Here, the authors study the genomic landscape of 3653 AML patients and characterize 16 non-overlapping

COOBoostR: An Extreme Gradient Boosting-Based Tool for Robust Tissue or Cell-of-Origin Prediction of Tumors

open access: yesLife, 2022
We present here COOBoostR, a computational method designed for the putative prediction of the tissue- or cell-of-origin of various cancer types. COOBoostR leverages regional somatic mutation density information and chromatin mark features to be applied ...

A practical guide for mutational signature analysis in hematological malignancies

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Mutational signature analysis provides important information about the mutational processes underpinning different stages of tumorigenesis. Here, the authors compare publicly available signature extraction tools and suggest a framework for the generation

A recurrent somatic missense mutation in GNAS gene identified in familial thyroid follicular cell carcinomas in German longhaired pointer dogs

open access: yesBMC Genomics, 2022
Background We previously reported a familial thyroid follicular cell carcinoma (FCC) in a large number of Dutch German longhaired pointers and identified two deleterious germline mutations in the TPO gene associated with disease predisposition.

Genomic landscape and chronological reconstruction of driver events in multiple myeloma

open access: yesNature Communications, 2019
Multiple myeloma evolves continuously. Here the authors chronologically reconstruct driver events in multiple myeloma, noting a limited repertoire of initiating driver events that shape the evolutionary trajectory of the disease.

MutEnricher: a flexible toolset for somatic mutation enrichment analysis of tumor whole genomes

open access: yesBMC Bioinformatics, 2020
Background Analysis of somatic mutations from tumor whole exomes has fueled discovery of novel cancer driver genes. However, ~ 98% of the genome is non-coding and includes regulatory elements whose normal cellular functions can be disrupted by mutation ...

Effects of Somatic Mutations Are Associated with SNP in the Progression of Individual Acute Myeloid Leukemia Patient: The Two-Hit Theory Explains Inherited Predisposition to Pathogenesis [PDF]

open access: yesGenomics & Informatics, 2013
This study evaluated the effects of somatic mutations and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on disease progression and tried to verify the two-hit theory in cancer pathogenesis.

Functional analysis of germline ETV6 W380R mutation causing inherited thrombocytopenia and secondary acute lymphoblastic leukemia or essential thrombocythemia

open access: yesPlatelets, 2021
Germline mutations in ETV6 gene cause inherited thrombocytopenia with leukemia predisposition. Here, we report on functional validation of ETV6 W380R mutation segregating with thrombocytopenia in a family where two family members also suffered from acute
